and the worst part was that Grace's Twizzler demonstration worked. the politicians in the meeting were brought to full understanding of the scientific problem at hand (...well. ehhhh. kind of. full enough, anyway), were actually charmed by Dr. Grace's humorous and down-to-earth presentation, and ended up agreeing to give Stratt everything she was demanding from them.

This video depicts a moment that is nearly impossible to observe: a sperm whale surfacing with a giant squid clenched between its teeth. These predators hunt at depths exceeding 800 meters, where light does not penetrate, and only biosonar directs the pursuit. Consequently, clear surface images are exceedingly rare.

>The black hawk sleeps, dreams. He will wake up in January.

Rem isn't even out yet and I'm already making alternate designs for the little guy, Valve drop him already. Mostly based on his leaked pillow texture having an eight-pointed star you see a lot in Mapuche art and textiles.
